“I didn’t know anything about Pokémon cards. My son started collecting them. I came into the store met with a young kid named Drake. I left this store with the confidence & the know how to be able to support my son, all thanks to Drake! He was very helpful and didn’t treat me like some dumb father! Whoever Drake‘s bosses are, you need to give him a raise we need more people like him In retail sales!”
“Coolest group of guys work at this shop. They saved my fishing trip when I got my gear stolen. Gave me a deal on a set of Simms G4z waders so I can fish! 1000 stars.”
“Staff was so kind and helpful getting me started with my new train set. Spent time explaining everything I needed to know and made sure my engine was running well.
I will definitely be back!”
“I had come in looking for a fairly specific O gauge commuter car…although I didn’t find that one. I did leave with a couple others and some track! They seem to have the best price on track around. I’ll be back!”
“Such a wonderful shop! Jampa, (the owner), is such a nice person, and as wonderful to talk to as he is kind. The shop itself is a treasure trove of discovery! So many wondrous things await in here! Do yourself a favor and check it out, and be sure to talk to Jampa too! Also: they carry Tibetan Medicine which is wonderful!”
“I was visiting Oregon from Alaska and wanted to see a GW store as we don't have one back home. It was a nice little visit, Kirby was a pleasure to talk with and I ended up picking up a single blisterpack unit. Would have loved to really browse longer but my spouse was sick in the car so I couldn't stay too long. I would definitely visit again if ever back in Portland.”

“Support your local toy store! They have a great selection of toys, games, crafts, and kits. Limited selection of stuffed animals, but great quality and brands for the ones they have (jellycat, bukowski, squishables, Douglas, etc). Have a decent selection of fidgets but would also like a little more options. Prices are reasonable and staff are friendly. They offer free gift wrapping for anything and have a rewards program with money off future purchases”
“We went to Lloyd Center for ice skating and then we stumbled upon Brickdiculous. It was 5 minutes before closing and my son and his friend, both on the spectrum fell in love with this place. They had to check out all the Lego sets, all of the already made displays and see everything. We finally settled on a set with one minute to spare and the kids asked so many questions and the guys working there were so nice, they didn’t even seem slightly in the least bothered that the kids were running around looking at everything asking so many questions even 5 minutes after the store was supposed to close. The guys working even let my son’s friend grab a brick separator that he just saw at the last second on the way out and even sent us out with stickers and a couple extra little free things. The kids were beyond mind blown and they are still talking about it and we can’t wait to make one more stop next week and then see them in the Pioneer Place Mall! They may be a small little store but they had the biggest impact on my kids! Thank you so much for all your kindness, patience and understanding and just letting my kids yack your ears off”
“Being from out of town, I love the curated supplies, artist staff that can vouch for them and the opportunity to shop on Sunday after 5, when the Portland Art Museum closes.”
“I’ve been a regular customer for 2 years now and have developed a rapport, arguably a friendship with the staff and owner. All
great people that genuinely care/partake in the products they sell. I will always go to Other Worlds first for comics, novels, trading cards, miniature tools, etc.”
“Amazing place and wonderful people. I love coming here and playing commander on the weekends as well as hitting their tournaments. They give the best prizes around!”
“One of the only decently priced Pokemon shops I’ve been in Portland. The employees also seemed nice (and not only men behind the counter, which a very big green flag). Single packs were only slightly higher than MSRP, and although there was mostly Magic, there were also singles of both Magic and Pokemon. Keep it up!”
“First.... my cashier was absolutely the best, so very nice which made shopping the last Sunday before Christmas special. He also was amazing filling my bags, breakable things and he made it protected. The store was clean and still enticing, I spent an hour or more there. The sale was ok....I tend to distrust them. But I did save a ton of money. All in all, thank you Michael's for a great experience.”
“This tiny store is packed with great collectables and nostalgia. Staff are friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. I’m a collector myself and love talking to other collectors who are actually in the game of collecting and not just flipping something around for maximum profit. You’ll find items here you’ve never seen or known about before. Prices are great and selection is even greater. Come support this local business.”
“I went in today looking for a craft project to do for a sleepover for my friend’s granddaughter!!
Your employees are happy, helpful and seem to enjoy their work!
I found a ton of great stuff thanks to your stock and especially the knowledge and guidance of your team!
Bailey was super kind and helpful!!
You must be a good employer to have such great employees !
Good job Michaels ❤️❤️❤️”
“Great place to get beads, & paint & everything to go along with your art project. Very helpful employees & nice. They had exactly what I needed with a 25% coupon discount on any regular priced item off of my cell phone. Yeah!”
“I came in for the first time today and had an excellent experience. I came in looking for vintage X-men items as a birthday present for my girlfriend and was greatly appreciative of the expertise I received as well as the very reasonable pricing. If I had more time to spare I would have dug through the baseball cards…. But I’m excited to come back and do a deep dive there too!”
“Nice location, good & safe parking. I didn’t get the guys name behind the counter? But he was awesome! I came in the evening towards closing. Next time I’ll get his name. That’s my new store location. We moved from Savannah, Ga. Had to find a GameStop.”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I had a great experience at TAP Plastics in Portland. I was looking for a sheet of plastic for my aquarium because the original one kept bowing after a few days. Logan helped me out and cut a new piece to the exact size I needed.
He was very pleasant, kind, and took the time to make sure everything was right. The new piece fits perfectly and solved the problem. Excellent customer service and quality work. I’ll definitely be back!”
